Yesterday, Larry Page announced that more than 750 million devices powered by Android have now been activated globally. Considering that Google Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) accounted for 480 million Android devices in September, Business Insider has calculated that by now, “Google is averaging 1.4 million devices activated per day”.
